Who we are

An organised, skilled and responsible youth community can build a society founded on justice.

JYDA was founded by young leaders who wanted a platform where youth actively solve social, environmental and developmental challenges — through education, advocacy, capacity building, volunteerism and partnerships.

Climate Action

Resilience, environmental protection and green skills for coastal youth.

Education

Training, life skills and leadership development programmes.

Justice & Rights

Advocacy for equality, inclusion and marginalised communities.

Civic Engagement

Youth participation in community development and policy.

The Accountability Tool

Your voice, recorded and followed up.

The tool lets citizens submit complaints, observations, recommendations or feedback about civic services and governance. Transparency starts with documented evidence.

Open the tool

Step 1

Describe the issue

Share a complaint, observation, recommendation or feedback about a civic service.

Step 2

Add place & proof

Attach your location — detected or pinned — plus photographs as evidence.

Step 3

We track it

Every submission gets a tracking ID and moves through review to resolution.
